Worth knowing about Buenos Aires
Two Buenos Aires routes, two sets of rules. Couples who are both tourists marry at the Registro Civil central office on Uruguay 753 at no charge, with two witnesses holding an Argentine DNI, a notarial act of their temporary address in the city and a sworn translator if needed. The ceremonies in emblematic places such as the Rosedal require a CABA address on a DNI, four witnesses and a cap of 40 people.
